Now that I’m a mama and
my morning routine involves preparing someone else for the day in addition to
myself, my everyday look has become super simplified. I have a “casual” but pretty conservative
office. I wear flats almost every day
(my favs are the logo-less “Eddie” by Tory Burch), dark skinny or straight leg
jeans, assorted button up shirts & blazers.
Laid back but still polished enough.
For my hair (ponytail – almost always) and for my makeup: foundation,
minimal eye shadow, bronzer, mascara, and a swipe of lip gloss (clear) because
I cannot stop kissing my son. The makeup
portion can easily be done in 5 minutes.
If I’m good on time I add finishing/setting powder and a spritz of
facial mist.
Lately I’m loving Laura
Mercier’s caviar eye stick in grey pearl.
It stays on perfectly without ever creasing. If I want to amp it up I add some gray
shadows from my favorite Cle de Peau palette.
You can also layer the eye sticks for a gorgeous, more dramatic
look. I curl my lashes and apply several
coats of Trish’s “High Volume” mascara – I take the skinny little wand all the
way down to the root of my lashes and wriggle it upwards. It’s water proof and comes off your lashes in
little tubes with soap and water and leaves no streaky mess. Your lashes feel soft not stiff and look
beautifully defined and voluminous.
